ThinkFun Rush Hour Traffic Jam Brain Game and STEM Toy for Boys and Girls Age 8 and Up – Tons of Fun With Over 20 Awards Won, International seller for Over 20 Years

Description

Rush Hour is one of ThinkFun’s most popular stem toys for
boys and girls, and has been an internationally bestselling brain teaser
puzzle for over 20 years, with over 10 million units sold worldwide. It’s a
fun traffic jam logic game that comes with 40 challenges of increasing
difficulty, from beginner to expert, and makes a great birthday or holiday
present for kids who like smart games and challenging activities. Rush Hour is
made with high quality components, and comes with a very clear and easy to
understand instruction manual – you’ll be able to play within minutes of
opening the box. Like all of ThinkFun’s games, Rush Hour is built to develop
critical thinking skills. Playing through the increasingly difficult
challenges will improve logical reasoning and critical thinking skills, all
through fun gameplay. Honk! Honk! It’s gridlock and the little red
car can’t move. The player is a traffic cop in the Rush Hour Traffic Jam
Puzzle where the objective is to get the red car off the road. To play, pick
one of 40 challenge cards; solutions are printed on the back of each card.
Then set up the cars and buses in a specified pattern on the 6-inch-square
road grid. Move the vehicles one by one (obey those traffic laws!) until the
red car can escape the traffic jam. There are four levels of difficulty. Kids
can alternate turns with another player or just “play in traffic” alone. The
game from Binary Arts received a national award from Mensa and is used in
elementary school math classes. The design includes clear instructions printed
on the sturdy box, which can be used both as a playing tray and for storage.
The game cards stow away in a drawer in the road grid. This is a 1999 Parents’
Choice recommended toy. –Marcie Bovetz P.when(‘A’).execute(function(A) {

Forty cards each show a different version of total gridlock, with one red car
hemmed in by other vehicles that block the single exit. Select a card and
replicate its pattern on the playing surface, then figure out the right
sequence of moves to shift obstructing cars and trucks out of the way.
Solutions are included. (Ruth B. Roufberg, Parent’s Choice®, 1996) — From
